What's for dinner?

[CosmicTDI]

Last night was a lot of tacos...

[Village Idiot™]

I had seared tuna steaks last night and this was the end concoction. This one spent about 1 minute on each side then was sliced and plated. The mixture in the back is mayo and Sriracha's chili garlic sauce mixed up. Front is just a pile of wasabi that looks like a green turd with soy sauce running across.

This is what it is tonight. Raise a cheer!

[huje]

[VdubGoddess]

[CosmicTDI]

Some kickass pork spare ribs rubbed with this first

Came out DELICIOUS!

[flygliii]

"Theo's Steakhouse" burgers from Whole Paycheck on their rustic buns, organic lettuce, heirloom tomatoes, avocado slices, grilled organic yellow onion, mustard and mayo; homemade fries from yukon gold potatoes, a bottle of Kell's Irish Lager from Rogue, and some organic strawberries for dessert...

EDIT: Great thread, btw!

[VdubGoddess]

Last night: Turkey burgers with swiss cheese and avocado.

Tonight: Possibly take out or a Caesar Salad.

[CosmicTDI]

Last night was spinach lasagna.

Tonight is Irish bacon with cabbage and colcannon. Irish cream and chocolate terrine for dessert.

[JLoh]

Broiled Halibut and sauteed spinach.

[Wifey McWiferson]

Last night we ended up going out, so tonight will be corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, and carrots. The post about colcannon reminded me that there was a colcannon soup on Cooking Light's website that I wanted to try, but that will have to wait until the cabbage gets planted now! (Starting my first ever veggie garden)

[CosmicTDI]

Cabbage plants? Colcannon is made with kale.

Colcannon is traditionally made from mashed potatoes, kale or cabbage, butter, salt, and pepper.

The wife made tortellini for the first time, she spent 4 hours slaving in the kitchen and she still has a bunch of dough and filling left over. It was might tasty though!

What he said.

Also, cabbage, kale, broccoli, brussels sprouts, collard greens, and a whole bunch of others are technically the same vegetable, taxanomically. It's when you branch off into cultivar groups that you get the differences. Alton Brown just did a really cool episode of Good Eats on this in preparation for St. Patrick's Day.

Pretty cool stuff, imo

[Ghost of VW TANK]

1/2 lb buffalo cheeseburger with ranch and tabasco chipotle

awesome grilling weather

[leitmotif]

home made pork schnitzel and german potato salad.

My first attempt at it and it turned out well. I'm not much of a cook but I thought I'd surprise the Mrs.

[CosmicTDI]

Awesome baked salmon with Irish potato bake (bacon, cheese, cream, potatoes), roasted beets and brussel sprouts. Yummy.

[Benjamin.]

Dinner tonight: The Roosevelt burger. 2 1/2lb burgers, sliced pork roll, fried egg, jack and cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion - with a large side of gravy cheese fries.

2lbs 10oz (the styrofoam weighed 7/8 of an oz), all for $9.99. A hair under 18 minutes from start to finish...the burgers were gone in less than 6 minutes, but the fries were a challenge.

I'm gonna grill up some "seafood sausages" I found in the freezer section at Trader Joes. It's supposed to be basil, sundried tomato, swai (whitefish), shrimp, and scallops. Grilled Asparagus on the side

[VdubGoddess]

Tonight I am making Turkey meatloaf with parm. and spinach with some sweet pot. fries and a nice green salad.

[Wifey McWiferson]

Tonight might be teriyaki glazed Boca burgers with grilled pineapple and some oven-baked fries... and maybe I'll make the Guinness cake I read about on npr yesterday...

[CosmicTDI]

There is so much leftover salmon from last night, I might eat it again tonight since it's Friday (during lent). Not sure yet.

[flygliii]

My version of tacos from grilled king salmon and prawns (both seasoned with oregano from our garden and coarse S&P), grilled spring onions fom our garden, heirloom tomatoes, green leaf lettuce, lotsa avocado, sour cream, roasted red chile salsa, vegetarian refried beans, washed down with Sol and/or lemonade, and a fruta bomba/papaya for dessert.

[Wifey McWiferson]

Trying my hand at grilled butternut squash and grilled zucchini. I also have a pot of garlic/kale/canellini beans/chicken stock/quinoa on the stove, and I just made kale chips... Eating kale chips feels like you're chewing on a tree in the autumn, but they're actually pretty good. Just kale, olive oil, salt, pepper, bake it all together for a few minutes. Crunchy and tasty. Would probably be a good addition to the quinoa stew I'm making, but I don't think they'll last that long.

[VdubGoddess]

Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad... with garlic bread.

[Tornado2dr]

Chili that is slow cooking as we speak.

[Village Idiot™]

I made chicken noodle soup.

A friend fixed red thai curry soup last week and made chicken stock from scratch. I used the left overs and cut up some red tomatoes, baby portabellas, celery, chives, leeks, and the rest of the chicken (wings and thighs) and tossed them into the pot with the stock.

Added some whipping cream towards the end. It turned out well.

[VdubGoddess]

Chili cheese dogs with Chili Cheese Tater tots. A special request from my mom while she is visiting. Luckily my husband loves it as well.

Guess I will be eating a salad.

I'm sorry - I'm new on here, so I don't know what your dietary situation is, but that sounds awesome. After my husband's burger-eating competition this past weekend, we're back onto Weight Watchers, which means dinner will likely be something more like your salad than your family's chili cheese extravaganza

[VdubGoddess]

We usually eat very healthy in our house. And nights like tonight don't happen very often. My mom is visiting for a few weeks and brought some chili from back home so they both requested it for dinner tonight.

I am actually a diabetic so I am very careful with what I eat.

[CosmicTDI]

A cottage/shepherd's pie. Had some ground beef that had to be used up. Beef, corn, peas, and mashed potatoes. I made it earlier and it's waiting to go in the oven.

[flygliii]

Grilled onions, chicken breasts marinated in olive oil, lime, oregano, cumin, S&P; skirt steak, same marinade plus red pepper flakes; patatas bravas and steamed artichokes w/homemade aioli, sliced cucumber and avocado salad, washed down with Bitburger for the adults and lemonade for the kid.

[F_your_lies]

Sushi... Crunchy and some spicy jalapeno Dragon rolls
